Batching Plants for Rready-Mix Concrete

SKAKO is one of the world’s largest suppliers of complete concrete batching plants for ready-mix concrete, precast concrete and concrete elements.

The mixer requires minimum maintenance and is easy to operate. A reversible screw homogenises and distributes the materials vertically. As a result, the mix obtained is very homogenous and stable. The equipment can be cleaned automatically between batches. Since the surface area of cone is small and there are no tools at the inlet, there is very little chance for any residual material to remain behind.

A reversible turbo whirler at high speed prevents and destroys bullets of non-mixed particles. This translates into powder savings. The mixer achieves faster mixing by distributing liquids rapidly into the heart of mixture. Reversible rotation cone helps in accelerated emptying cycle. The conical shape of the mixing chamber allows for smaller batches from 10 to 100 per cent of the maximum filling capacity.

The motors for all 3 mixing functions are managed via frequency converters

Features include

  • Rpm of individual tools.
  • Action duration of individual tools until stop or inversion.
  • Action change triggered by batch consistency.
  • Multi parameter combinations for determined mix designs.
  • Rheological control via power consumption at different whirler speeds.
  • Water content control.

Tamil Nadu is set to host one of India’s five national carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) testbeds, aimed at reducing CO2 emissions in the cement industry as part of the country’s 2070 net-zero goal, as per a news report. The facility will be based at UltraTech Cement’s Reddipalayam plant in Ariyalur, supported by IIT Madras and BITS Pilani. Backed by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), the project will pilot an oxygen-enriched kiln capable of capturing up to two tonnes of CO2 per day for conversion into concrete products. Additional testbeds are planned in Rajasthan, Odisha, and Andhra Pradesh, involving companies like JK Cement and Dalmia Cement. Union Minister Jitendra Singh confirmed that funding approvals are underway, with full implementation expected in 2025.
